I think jury is still out on the 991.1 3RS especially since Porsche lowered the redline and we don't see many 30k+ mile examples yet just a few. Although there have been some reports on here of 991.1 3RS engines going as well.

Only engine we don't seem to see reports for yet is the 991.2 Speedster/992 GT3/718 GT4RS that shares that new cup car motor.

Has this happened to any non RS .2 GT3's to anyone's knowledge? Also, happened to any manual GT3s? Curious how prevalent this is.
Heard from who? A mechanical engineer who has the experience and credentials to design such an engine as such they are experts in the field? You do understand your statement is extremely subjective?

So they ordered PTS, then added satin PPF to make it look like a wrap, now that’s funny.

I have a buddy with a satin PPF on his lava orange .1 3RS, it looks really nice. It does not look at all like a wrap in person.

The Miami Blue 3RS all day! Funny how this forum tries to chew down the value of the .2 RS especially in Miami Blue when the new RS is going for over $450k and 992 GT3 Tourings are still close to $300k.... It's all relative based on the unique car you're trying to buy or wish you had.

I paid $240k for my miami blue .2 3RS as CPO with 13k miles on it. Paid $207k MSRP for the 992 GT3 brand new. I think the 3RS is the better value for the dollar, the better car, and will hold value better in the long run.

991 is a bit underappreciated at the moment because a lot of guys want the latest thing, under the assumption that newest is always better. It's not.

Porsche is just slowly acclimating everyone to bigger, more refined, more digital cars, but not everyone really wants bigger, more refined, more digital. There's nothing luddite in preferring a smaller, rawer, more analog sports car, given these cars are meant for fun on road and track, not commuting or racing.
